Balanced review and a playthrough....

There is however a torrential downpour of other vids and articles that contain the more bandwagon criticisms. The good? The bad and the ugly.....

Not sure about this starter playthrough review, it's not 'good' but it's better than the next two vids below:


These are the bad and the ugly:
